How to Use the Houzz Pro API — Beta

The Houzz Pro API lets you build your own custom integrations between Houzz Pro and the other tools you use to run your business. It's designed for developers or technical users who are comfortable working with APIs. This article covers how to set up access in your Houzz Pro account.

For authentication, available endpoints, scopes, rate limits, and example requests, visit the Houzz Pro Developer Documentation.

Looking for a ready-made integration instead? Houzz Pro offers built-in connections with Mailchimp, Pipedrive, HubSpot and Zoho. See How to Connect Third-Party Apps.

Before You Start

To use the Houzz Pro API, you'll need:

1. Access to the API Integrations page in your account settings. If you're a team member, ask your account owner or super admin to grant you access from the Team Permissions page.
2. To accept the Houzz API Terms of Use. The first time you open API Management, you'll be asked to accept the terms. Each person who uses API Management needs to accept them individually.
3. Experience working with REST APIs.

Get Your API Credentials

To authenticate with the Houzz Pro API, you need to create an API client.

1. Click the Settings icon in the left navigation, then select API Management.

2. Click Create API Client.

3. Enter a Name and an optional Description for your API client.

4. Select the scopes your integration needs. Scopes control which Houzz Pro data your integration can read or change, so only turn on the ones you'll use.

5. Click Create API Client at the bottom of the page. Your Client ID and Client Secret will appear.

6. Copy your Client ID and Client Secret. You'll use them to authenticate your API requests.

Important: Keep your Client Secret private and treat it like a password. Don't share it or store it anywhere public.
